Chapter 55

After dinner, the two went to the market again and bought some pork, fish, and some vegetables.

Liao Xuemin felt a little distressed. Today he spent a lot of money. These things cost him five yuan, which was equivalent to half a month's salary.

He has been in the factory for less than two years and is still an apprentice, with a monthly salary of only 18.5 yuan. My father refused to support a penny, so his life has been tight.

When he got home, Liao Xuemin began his cooking performance.

First wash the pork, cut it into large pieces, put it in a pot and blanch it. After it is cooked, take it out and set aside to dry the water.

Then cook oil in a pot, add sauce, five-spice, star anise, cinnamon, and pepper, stir-fry to bring out the aroma, then put the pork in, start simmering for an hour on low heat, and then you can eat it.

After stewing the meat, Liao Xuemin began to deal with the silver carp again. He was skillful and neat in his movements. He looked like a chef, but he just didn't know how it tasted.

"Brother Xuemin, I really didn't expect that you have such skills. Your movements are so skillful!"

In the kitchen, Chen Wenfang showed surprise on his face, his eyes were full of admiration and admiration.

Liang Jinxiu is right. The man in front of her seems to be really good. If you want to conquer a woman, you must first learn to conquer her stomach.

Liao Xuemin smiled and said, "Haha, this meat is not only smelling fragrant, it tastes even more fragrant. You will know later."

While speaking, he had already processed the big silver carp, sprinkled with seasonings such as shredded ginger, green onion slices, salt, and put them on a plate.

Put the plate in the pot, use chopsticks to empty the bottom, add water, and light the firewood. This steamed fish dish is finished. After an hour, you will be ready to eat.

As the heat rose, the braised pork and steamed fish exuded a strong fragrance, filling the whole house for a moment, and even began to float out of the yard.

Even though Chen Wenfang had just finished her breakfast, the tempting fragrance still made her mouth feel salivated.

With the breeze, the strong smell of meat spread directly to the homes of all households in the compound.

Intermediate Court, Xue Family.

Mrs. Xue had steamed buns, stick noodles and a small plate of pickled radish for lunch today.

She gnawed the steamed buns and felt like she was chewing the bark, which made her hard and hard to swallow.

The stick surface is light and tasteless. If it is chewed carefully, there is a bitter taste, which makes people frown. He endured the discomfort. Old Mrs. Xue forced it to swallow it into her stomach, but the feeling of disgust arises naturally.

Only pickled radish can taste a refreshing taste, but if you eat this, you won’t resist hunger and will not be effective. You will fall into hunger again in a while.

Smelling the aroma of meat next door and looking at the food on her table, she couldn't help but burst into tears, wiping her tears, forcing her to eat steamed buns and stick noodles.

She seemed to remember her dead husband again, and missed her life with Lao Xue at that time.

She cried even harder, and her nose and tears came out, covering her mouth tightly, afraid that the neighbors would hear it, and that those people could not let them laugh.

The memories that had been treasured for a long time rushed in like a flood, touching the deepest scar in her heart. She looked at Lao Xue's photo on the table with heartache, which was also the only photo.

At that time, she could not have to work every day and concentrate on her shoe soles at home, and she had Lao Xue help to take care of everything.

Until one day, Lao Xue died of work injury and the sky in the Xue family fell. Fortunately, Xue Ling succeeded and replaced his father's position and worked as an apprentice in the factory to barely make a living.

After crying for a while, she seemed to feel better. Her thoughts returned to reality. She now hated Liao Xuemin and Shen Wenfang next door. Since she could not beat Liao Xuemin, she could only scold her.

"Chen Wenfang, a shameless thing, just a few days ago, got into Liao Xuemin. Bah, shameless."

"At noon, I actually cooked meat in the yard. It was so fragrant and it was too immoral."

"Can they eat so much meat and fish?"

"My old lady lives next door, so I don't know how to send some to our house."

backyard.

On the other hand, Liao Xuemin estimated that the braised pork and steamed silver carp were almost cooked and ready to eat it.

"Come on, Wen Fang, taste this meat and see if it's cooked!"

"Wow, Brother Xuemin, the braised pork you made is really delicious. The first time I have eaten such delicious braised pork!

The meat is fat but not greasy, and it also has a faint sweet taste. I think the chefs outside have better skills!”

Chen Wenfang was holding a braised pork in her mouth, and she said it in a hurry while exhaling heat.

"Just as it tastes good, our task today is to finish these dishes."

Xue Family.

A slim and handsome woman was walking in with a bowl of porridge carefully.

She slowly put the bowl in her hand on the table in the room, and looked at the porridge with bright eyes.

I kept swallowing, as if the bowl of porridge in front of me was delicacies.

At this time, the woman's stomach also sounded, as if urging her to drink the porridge in front of her quickly.

The chat was to comfort the hungry stomach, but the girl just kept swallowing the saliva from her mouth.

She touched her stomach and finally walked towards the room.

I saw an old lady lying on the earthen kang in the inner room. The old lady looked skinny and pale.

The girl walked in, sat gently beside the kang, and looked at the old lady on the kang.

She yelled softly: "Mom, come on, I've cooked your favorite rice porridge for you."

"A piece of rock candy is added, get up and eat a little."

Old Mrs. Xue was lying on the bed and moaning, and in a daze, she seemed to hear her daughter talking to her.

She wanted to open her eyes and drink some porridge, but she found that her eyelids were very heavy, so she could only whisper: "Xiao Ling, mom is not hungry, you can eat it."

Yesterday she was angry with Liao Xuemin, and she cried loudly when she thought of her dead husband.

Unexpectedly, she fell ill today, and Xue Ling even asked for a day off for this.

"Mom, I'll feed you. You've eaten all day long, so it won't work."

Old Mrs. Xue opened her mouth slightly, and the warm rice porridge flowed into her stomach along the esophagus, like a warm current, warming her body.

Old Mrs. Xue felt that she was very hungry now, and the intestines in her stomach seemed to be mixed together.

At this moment, my stomach made a gurgling sound, and made a strong protest to her, asking her to eat quickly.

Under Xue Ling's care, Old Mrs. Xue finally finished a bowl of rice porridge to relieve her hunger. She felt much better and even felt that even the headache was relieved.

Old Mrs. Xue suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Take me another bowl."

Xue Ling served another bowl, and she quickly took it and started drinking without saying anything.

At this time, she was so hungry that the porridge was just right, and her body urgently needed to replenish calories.

Old Mrs. Xue was full and fell asleep again, but this time she didn't hum and slept very well.
